Last night we left flowers and candles in a vigil for Sarah Montgomery on the Guildhall steps.
There have been 27 recorded femicides in NI since 2020.
The most dangerous place for women is in the home and the most dangerous predator of women are white men, not migrants.
A shot across the bow for @SDLPlive @SDLPyouth
members from @AlbanMaginness who says they don't "value life" - this is why the SDLP must be brave and change their party stance to a pro-choice pro-decrim position.
Criminalisation means that the police investigate your private life, your medical history and you are liable to go to prison.
@AlbanMaginness whipping up moral panic live on @bbcradioulster.
Just say it @AlbanMaginness - you want to punish women for exercising their right to do what ever they want with their own bodies. @bbcradioulster
Listening to old man @AlbanMaginness on @bbcradioulster trying every trick in the book to evade saying that he wants to punish and lock women up for having an abortion.
Decriminalisation really reveals the misogyny!!!
We had been under the impression that @SorchaEastwood had also voted in support of NC1 but she did not attend the vote in Westminster last night.
We are also hearing Sorcha removed her name from support of NC1 before the vote.
@allianceparty can you please clarify?
Credit where credit is due, we would like to thank @ClaireHanna and @columeastwood for voting to support the decriminalisation of abortion for people who can get pregnant in England and Wales.
We are always available to chat about changing @SDLPlive party stance on this issue!
Alliance for Choice Derry retweeted
NI had decrim & a right to abortion when I need an abortion in 22. Services were stalled & weaponised & left me vulnerable.
Voting for @stellacreasy NC20 is only way to protect women in E&W from suffering what happened to me.
@ClaireHanna @columeastwood @SorchaEastwood
We urge all MP's to fully repeal Sections 58 and 59 of the Offences Against the Person Act in Westminster this Tuesday.
Please reach out to your MP and ask them to do the same.

This week we attended an APPG for SRH in Westminster to show gratitude to the doctors providing abortion care in the north and to implore MP's to support aid into Gaza and to stop Israel's genocide.
Initially refused entry-we made our voices heard.
